See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Appellants appeal the district court’s order transferring
their civil case to the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York under 28 U.S.C. § 1404 (1994). We
dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the order is
not appealable. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over
final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1994), and certain interlocutory
and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (1994); Fed. R. Civ. P.
54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).
The order here appealed is neither a final order nor an appealable
interlocutory or collateral order. See Gower v. Lehman, 799 F.2d
925, 927 (4th Cir. 1986) (noting that transfers under § 1404 are
interlocutory and nonappealable).
We grant Appellants' motion to dismiss because the appeal is
interlocutory, deny their motion to compel, as amended, and dismiss
the appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before
the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
